dear fellow railfans i have some bad news to report to you all and it has to do with microsoft not launching thier train simulator 2 due out in holiday 2009 they have canceled thier plans citing other software programmes that will be taking precedent so my question is how does this sad news affect you?do you run other train simulators on your computer?and if so which ones?i run rail simulator from ea games and also the older version of microsoft train simulator.

Well, I've got the original MS Train Simulator.  Just wish somebody would come up with a good version of the Altoona-Cresson, PA route.

I thought due to the economy they cancel or hold a few projects back. But we have the demand for the software. I was looking for the software this year.

I was also looking forward to the Altoona route. I am using Trainz 2006, ea's rail simulator, and the original Train Simulator.

 I was even thinking of using TS 2 to base a computer upgrade on ( yes, even using Vista if i had to).

you didnt need vista to run the game but would if you need technical support for some reason

Do you have a link for this information?  Reason I ask is that the MS TS2 web site still shows a Holiday 2009 release date and a Google search did not bring up anything.

It would be a shame if it was this was the case as I would like to upgrade my TS1 to a newer version.  And the EA one is not very good compared to TS.
